Past / History (include childhood, major-events, etc. 2+ paragraphs long):
Elaverir was born to two Wood Elf parents of pure linage. His father was an explorer and heart who struck love with a cook, his mother. His parents did not enjoy city life much, as they were not very talkative -- favoring actions over words. They resided in a cottage a few miles from the capital of Malinor, Leumalin. Elaverir's parents only spoke common, giving Elaverir no knowledge of the language the Elves of Malinor began to speak. They did not teach Elaverir many customs of the Elves, as they had no need for it. It was only once in a few years that they would travel to the capital, and that would only be on special occasions.
Elaverir began his training in archery during his teenage years. At first, like all beginners, he was quite clumsy and unskilled. His father worked to change this. They often, as a family, left their cottage and went on trips to explore and attempt to reach places further and further away from home, to simply gather knowledge and enlightenment. Over the years, Elaverir became more and more skilled with a bow. His life at the cottage left Elaverir skilled, but left him without many social skills and modern Elven culture.
Before reaching his adulthood, Elaverir already had a knack for exploration and adventure. He often left his family's cottage in search for artifacts (to which he found none) or plants and animals. He could climb and was a quick runner, but this did not stop him from failing. Elaverir has had two broken legs, which makes his current legs a bit weaker than others. He cannot take large blows to them, or else he will fall and be rendered useless. He also has little to no skill in swordsmanship. His skill in archery progressed to the point which it is now, which is quite skilled but not still yet an expert.
Elaverir, who is now in adulthood, decided along with his parents that he would leave home. He would make his way to Malinor, to truly find out what his purpose in life is. All his childhood he had longed to find the large tree homes of the Elves, and it is an ambition of his to do so.
Ambitions for the Future: Elaverir has plenty ambitions, but he is currently most focused on finding Leumalin. He is also keen on exploring Anthos. He is an explorer by trade and plans to do that most of his life. Another ambition could be delving into ruins and finding exotic things, but that is put after exploration.
Personality: Elaverir enjoys boasting about his exploration and feats. He is not cocky but occasionally takes his stories overboard. He is calm and will not fight unless his or his own are threatened to the point of death or extreme pain. Elaverir is friendly and enjoys learning and exploration. He does not have many social skills and will not talk much unless needed to. He is curious, but sometimes his curiosity snaps back at him.
Skills: Elaverir is excellent with a bow, which is his primary weapon of choice should he need to choose one. He is agile and quick, but extremely clumsy with a blade. He is keen with his senses which he uses to explore and navigate. He does not have many social skills, to which grants him shyness and curiosity.
Appearance (this must include an in-game screenshot of your skin):
Elaverir has light cinnamon colored skin. He has dirty-blonde hair which he keeps short but does not cut much. He has pine green eyes. He's quite slim but is not very strong or built, as he does not much care for fitness other than the work he does. He wears clothing that represents his life style and his culture, which usually involves greens and browns as seen above. His clothing allows him to maneuver yet keep conservative at the same time.
Any other details you wish to share about your character: He is extremely clumsy with swords. Elaverir could be set under the true neutral alignment as this time.
